Just thought I'd share. They match the switchbacks pretty close...

Hows the brightness J?

Preety nice.... are your yellow foglights HID?

Yeah jsmith...those fogs look like they are in a stock bumper? How did you do it, what did you mount them to, and what kind of fogs are they?? VERY curious..

Niiiiiice! Yesterday I too ordered my 8000s.... now I know exactly how they will look Very nice.

very nice, props. and yea those fogs look nice.

That’s more like a downgrade with respect to light output.

I prefer function over looks but they do match your fogs pretty well

Yeah, I'd have to agree, Nice in term of color thou. Jay what happended to your bumper?

I think he cracked it in a couple places beyond repair so he went back to the stocker?

NICE!

Sweet J!!! I got the same set up!! I got my switchbacks this week and im throwing them on this weekend!!!! Got the yellow fogs also.

Oh and your max looks weird with out the bumper.

Curious as to where the bumper went? I see a a bumper, you mean the grill?

No, his aftermarket bumper he had on

He had the RLM bumper. He had it on there for so long that now it looks weird with out it.

Not yet, thinking about it though sometime early next year...

Yeah definitely not as bright but good enough for me, I knew that going in though.

I've been back on stock for about 6 months now, it's killing me!! With the twins arriving back in October, priorities have shifted a bit, even worse is I've had a replacemnt RLM bumper sitting in the garage (and on '07 rear bumper) for just as long!! But good news is I'm dropping them off tomorrow for paint, FINALLY!!

Here's why I am back to stock:



And here's why it took so long to get replacements painted and put on:

Um hid halogens ftl.

Do you mean the LED running lights in the lower bumper? If so read here:

Ha, funny guys. It's taking me long enough to get it painted you KNOW Im painting this b!tch SILVER!!!

Congrats J

October 1st changed my life too. Its been fun ride though.

grats guys!

Um, thanks for wasting a post in my thread. ftl to you is ftw for me, but thanks! Do you think I didn't know this going in...

I'm not getting defensive or anything but that's the one thing about this site that sucks. Someone always has to chime in with just a bit of negativity and bring the whole vibe down. (and thanks NmexMAX for post #7, same deal)

So I guys let me revise my thread title so maybe I can dodge these useless comments:
"Downgraded my HID's to be a s bright as halogens!! Check it out!!"

Congrats xoomer!! Amazing isn't it?

No negativity at all man. Im glad you love it . I know with my kids i upgraded my lights so i could see and make it safe for them thats all. Im sorry if you took it negative it was not meant that way at all.

So "FTL" For the loss, isn't negative? It is always hard to get the emotion (or non emotion) when reading a post, that's the problem with forums! Apology accepts and sorry for calling you out!!
As for the safety of it, you can definitely see me coming, it's not like I put 2 candles in there you know! Plus we got the minvan for the kids (3 total) so now I can have more fun with the Max!!!

NO problem man i feel ya. Im just a real lighting person. Like if you look at my car i have leds everywhere hids 4300k of course. And a loud *** fart can so you can hear it if you cant see it. But i do like your max man.

Thanks, looks like you got your hands full with twins. I can't complain. She eats and sleeps and she's beatufill and healthy, not much crying and I still get my zzzs at nights. God bless her and her mom.

Now get that bumper back on your maxie, we are so used to it and don't want to see a stocker on your super-duper ride.

Ha, we're on the same page, I have replaced every light with LED's (excpet the visors) I plan to do the 3000K HID's early next year. And I will have my fogs back in my new bumper as well, you won't miss me EVER!

Yeah I didn't mention that we have a 23 month old as well, so sleep what's that?
